Hadith 213

(The book) ‘I’lam Al Wara’ – In ‘Kitab Al tawheed’, from Al-Hassan Bin Jamhour the blind, he said, ‘It is narrated to me by Abu Al-Husayn Saeed Bin Sahl Al Basry, and he was titled as ‘Al Mallah’, said, ‘And it was so that Ja’far Bin Al-Qasim Al-Hashimy Al-Basry was saying (believing) in the pausing (Waqifite), and I was with him at Surmanray, when Abu Al-Hassan-asws saw him in one of the streets. He-asws said to him: ‘For how long will you be in this sleep? Is it not time for you to be waking up from it? ’
Ja’far said to me, ‘Did you hear what Ali-asws Bin Muhammad-asws said to me? By Allah-azwj! He-asws has cast something in my heart’. When it was after some days, a wedding feast took place for one of the children of the caliph, so he invited us in it, and he invited Abu Al-Hassan-asws along with us. We entered. When they saw him-asws, they became silent in reverence to him-asws, and a youth in the gathering went on nor revering him-asws and went on to make vague sounds and laughing. He-asws turned to him and said to him: ‘O you! You are filling your mouth with laughter and are abstaining from the Zikr of Allah-azwj, and you, after three days, will be from the inhabitants of the graves’. He (the narrator) said, ‘We said, ‘This is evidence, until we look at what would be happening! ’
He (the narrator) said, ‘The youth withheld and refrained from what he was upon, and we ate and went out. When it was after a day, the youth fell ill and died during the third day, from the beginning of the day and was buried in its end’’. [74]
And it is narrated to me by Saeed as well. He said, ‘We gathered as well in a wedding feat of one of the people of Surmanray, and Abu Al-Hassan-asws was with us. A man went on to mess around and mock, and he did not view any reverence for him-asws. He-asws turned to Ja’far and said, ‘As for him, he will not be eating from this meal, and soon news of his family would arrive to him what would embitter his life upon him’. He (the narrator) said, ‘The meal was brought forwards. Ja’far said, ‘There is no news after this. His-asws words have been nullified. By Allah-azwj! The man has already washed his hands and going to the meal. There was his slave having had entered from a door of the house, crying, and said to him, ‘Join with your mother, for she has fallen from the top of the house, and she is with the death! ’
Ja’far said, ‘I said, ‘By Allah-azwj! I will not be a pauser (Waqifite) after this! ’ And I cut off (from others and devoted) to him-asws’’. [75]
